How are they going to make money with this? A few weeks of buzz isn't going to make anyone rich. It's not like they're going for some product placement along with the buzz.

By "critical-everything" I'm talking about "critical" theories, or "Critical Theory". Aka the lenses people put on that makes them see everything as some sort of struggle due to power structures. A fun tho

How do I do this without being the parent of a kid that attends the school? I don't think they would enjoy that a random dude come in, they'd call the police I'm sure. We were in the SF East Bay (Berkeley) until recently whic

Similar wind speeds happen every afternoon in "the Slot" in the SF Bay. Maybe we should decorate the area with a similar giant windmill. It also happens to be when peak pricing is in effect.

As a foreigner with kids growing up in the US, this crazy bias toward critical-everything in the US education system makes me worried that my kids will be indoctrinated in some weird speculative theory instead of educated in normal fields i

How do you deal with it?

Small banks are less regulated than large ones, as a result of lobby from them to loosen the rules so that they can eek out some profits using less-conservative strategies. They also tend to serve localized and correlated customers, so loca

I used it about a year ago and it was pretty useful in making some large decisions but the more I used it, the harder it became to use as I couldn't duplicate and mutate easily without breaking my prior work, or basically without a ver

Posted without comment but also not self-explanatory. What's the insight here? If I take a stab, I'd say Vancouver looks like a better place to be. Nicer landscapes, higher income, similar cost of living prices.

Now we're talking about actually useful policy. Glad that my taxes pay for this, versus all the other stuff.

If anything, houses are going to stagnate until inflation catch up. No politician will want to sit in office while overseeing a nation-wide collapse of property value, this would tear the fabric of society too much. People can stomach makin

A year+ ago, the same folks were talking about the incoming switch from under supply to over supply, and the predictable outcome that we see today. None of those involved are surprised by this on the macro level, but when they put their sho

Yeah the term as been usurped. Obviously there's usefulness to cryptographic data structures. But what casual bystanders hear when they hear "blockchain" is "redo the financial world!" and "throw away the Fed a

By revolutionaries I mean that for blockchain to work, most real practical usages would involve throwing away the financial world and rebuilding it with blockchain, hoping in the meantime that we're not just building a worst second sys

Blockchain at the bottom, AI at the top. Makes sense to me. Both have heavy hype cycles but AI is actually interesting and generally useful. Blockchain... arguably can be useful, but it's more of a stretch and it almost comes hand-in-h

Pretty cool usage of custom MySQL extensions for DDSketch computation and storage, the code doing this will be interesting to read. Next up: search on MySQL/Vitess? I want it. But not sure it'll work well for sharding.

Yeah seems like kangaroo tendons are much stronger than pig/cow ones. Per the article.

Seems like the special sauce is nothing at all but what seems to be well known prior art: [0038] In preparing the xenograft for use, the tendon is surgically dissected and removed from the paratenon (tendon sheath). The tendon is

I think coroutines in Go will make it possible to use Go as a host for clean definition of discrete element simulations. Without it, yielding to an actor is clunky.

Why not use PlanetScale Boost?

To be fair, most conferences are fungible. You can meet the people you'll meet there elsewhere, at another conference or at other events like meetups. If for some reason SIGGRAPH is really the one place where you expect to meet the fol

Code reviews - semi formal trust based process. Pairing - informal dive into the code to explain it to me. Low formalism is what works best for me.

If you're not going to attend any other conference, meetup, or other ways to meet professionals in the field of your career, then you should go to the conference. Connections and networking are the bread and butter of getting your care

I think a lot of automated policing would help in the streets. It's probably not a popular point of view, but so many people don't care at all and nothing is enforced. Cars driving like it's real life madmax. Cars driving wit

Every time I went to am Apple Store, I came in, said what I wanted, they brought it to me, I paid and then I left. 5min max, and as recently as a month ago. I'll guess you've been unlucky or your particular store is bad?

So your IP changes and your DNS entries are all invalid across the www until they TTL. And then you're back online. Doesn't sound very useful for hosting anything public.

The pricing page shows the old plan starts at 29$/month for row-based pricing, and the new one at 39$/month for resource-based pricing: https://planetscale.com/pricing
